The Boss 429 was created to homologate Ford's new 429 CI V-8 engine for NASCAR racing. With more than 7.0 liters of V-8 power, and a 3.91:1 rear axle, the 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429 is a tire-destroying behemoth. Engine was a jaw dropping $1,200. Mandatory options included a four-speed ($254) and a 3.91:1 Traction-Lok ($64). An oil cooler, trunk-mounted battery, beefed suspension with front and rear stabilizer bars, Polyglas F60X15s, quicker power steering, and power front discs rounded out the required. Air conditioning and automatic transmission were forbidden.
 | The powerplant was laughably rated at 375 hp. Real output was closer to 500 hp. To meet emissions regulations, a mild cam was fitted with a smog pump and small carburetor. With a few modifications up to 600 bhp was common.  |
